    Red Sox have a history* of smearing people leaving the organization.

    No one needs to smear AJ, he does it to himself because he is just a grade A jerk and pretty much hated by most of baseball. Isn't like they threw a parade down Yawkey way when the bastard left.

    There is no issue. Certain fans just try to make an issue out of everything.

    I think he means the 4/70 contract offer from the spring. Which was ridiculously low.

    I'm guessing we see a trade with a package of outfielders for some pitching. Like... there has to be. Otherwise this just seems fucking ridiculous.

    I think it leaves endless room for a #1 starter and there's absolutely no excuse now not to do it. They are over paying for 2 infielders... you can't then expect to get Lester at a bargain.
